What Does 80 Bucks Buy in Grand Junction, CO?

Riddle me that Batman...80 bucks in Grand Junction buys you a visit from a really nice guy named Matt who's a locksmith who is still working at 11PM. Cuz, you see, I walked out of my RV to sit and enjoy the moon, and those double crossing locks of which only one locks from the inside...so I of course unlocked that one to get out...oops, gotta unlock the other from the outside...confused yet? I was. And I'm sitting there and I think...hmmm wouldn't it be terrible if the door locked? Why did I even have that thought in my head? So, yeah, I try to open the door and shit! I am locked out. But I got a beer and my cell phone...not all is wrong with my world. And I got real nice neighbors, David and Wendy, who also happen to be the park hosts...whew! David and I attempted to break in...nope. So I googled locksmiths and the first one I got hold of referred me to Matt. He was here in 30 minutes and until he arrived, I hung out with David and Wendy and watched Jimmy Fallon...nice. And to top it off...Matt said he didn't take credit cards, so check or cash...and of course I've got no checks but I said, "I'm pretty sure I've got the cash." After Matt finessed the lock, I check my wallet and count out all that I have: 3 20s, 2 5s, and 10 1s...once a banker, always a banker...I know what I got in my wallet. Hahaha! 

Kevin got really pissed cuz he was locked inside...and being a stuffed deer, he doesn't get around  real good...and well, he didn't have beer. So, anyway, he now thinks he should be the key keeper. Hmmmm...really Kev? You got stuffing for brains too dude. But here he is, holding onto the keys like he's the man. 
So, yeah. Grand Junction...it was a helluva drive today from Boise and until my adrenaline spiked with the lock out, I was damn tired. Severe weather circled around I80, so I had to take the southern route. It SHOULD be an easy drive tomorrow...going straight to Denver to park my RV in front of Jim and Anne's. I return it on Friday morning and then the gig is up...wow. What a long space trip its been! 

Peace, love, and don't get locked out!
